It's easy to tell if the amp or effect you're playing through has been constructed by musicians who are obsessed about tone and versatility. In fact, Bugera amplifiers and effects are a great example of what a strong dedication to craftsmanship can do for your performance. From the valves they select to the voice-coil windings and cones of their custom-built speakers, Bugera's selection of amps, cabinets, heads and effects are earning the praise of professional musicians from around the world.

When choosing the right Bugera amp or effect for you, it's always a good idea to take your own needs into consideration first. After all, if you're simply a stay-at-home enthusiast who prefers to rock out in the basement, you won't need anything too colossal. Of course, Bugera has everything from 120-watt heads to 15-watt practice amps, so you'll have no problem finding your ideal match.

Now let's take a look at some choices. If something compact is what you're after, then go with the BC15 15W 1x8. With a sound that harkens back to the golden age of tube design, this amp packs a mighty punch for its size, and the 1/4" TRS jack provides a connection for external playback devices like iPods, allowing you to jam along to your favorite songs. Another popular amp is the V22 1x12. Featuring high-quality components and rugged construction, this unique combo amp complements your performance with the gold-standard tones of the '50s and '60s. Whether you're a dignified blues player or a garage-rock turkey, the V22 1x12 guitar amp delivers an incredible tone that's perfect for small club gigs and home recording projects.

Bugera also specializes in bass heads, and the BVP5500 has some serious strength. Equipped with an amazing arsenal of tone-sculpting tools, the BVP5500 features 2 selected pairs of 12AX7 preamp tubes with their own drive control, ultra-high and ultra-low switches, and a 9-band graphic EQ. Overall, the BVP5500 is 550 watts of roaring power.

And these are only a few of Bugera's impressive boutique amp models available in this section, so be sure to look at their other options as well. With Bugera, you can take comfort in knowing that every amp and effect was designed with pride, and with your playing enjoyment in mind.
